Gates Jr. is rated a 4-star wide receiver for the class of 2022 by 247 Sports. He attends Fordson High School in Dearborn, Michigan.

He hasn’t been offered a scholarship by them yet but has been interested in them for a while. Last year, Gates attended a spring practice.

Gates Jr.’s father, Antonio, played college basketball at Eastern Michigan and then Kent State. He later became an NFL star tight end with the Chargers and will likely be inducted into the Hall of Fame one day.
